I started this course because I am embarking on more extensive treatment for endometriosis and I wanted to be more aware of what's involved in patient care.
Intro Videos
I watched a video called 'Mitchell's Story' and Learning about Mitchell's story and also learning how his condition affects his family makes me a little more mindful of how to handle my own condition in terms of how I include my family. I currently suffer from endometriosis and am about to go into deeper treatment for it and I've been trying to keep my family included in the decisions, but my mom basically said it comes up in every conversation we have and she's tired of hearing about it. She was the main caregiver for my dad when he was dying of cancer and that was six years ago, so I think that has burned her out in terms of being able and willing to serve as a caregiver anymore. I love her, but I also know I need to be more mindful of how my condition might be reminding her of the past and trauma associated with it.
